Pizza is one of my weaknesses! Here is a quick and easy dough recipe for making your own in minutes, using beer instead of yeast! For a gluten-free version, substitute your favorite gluten-free beer and flour mix, add 1 Tablespoon olive oil and bake a few minutes longer! Get creative with your toppings – right now my favorite is no sauce, crumbled gorgonzola, arugula, sliced pears and caramelized onions.

Preheat oven to 350. Add all dry ingredients to bowl, and stir. Slowly add in bottle of beer, mixing constantly until dough is formed (it will be sticky). Put dough on a floured surface, knead lightly (adding more flour if necessary) and roll to about ¼ inches thick. Place on pizza stone or baking sheet, use a fork to poke holes across the surface, and bake for 10 minutes.

Remove from oven, garnish with your favorite sauce, cheese and toppings, and bake for another 15-20 or until golden brown.
